A BIG thank you to Yann Martel, who has now signed our signature pages for Life of Pi. These pages are now heading over to Italy for Andrea Serio, the illustrator, to sign.

When they return to us they will be hand bound into the limited editions ready for despatching this Summer. Secure one of the four bindings here: https://boddington-royall.myshopify.com/collections/life-of-pie

I have had some time to redesign our shopify store. It now shows our editions that are available now and others that are on pre-order. It is a joy to see so many wonderful editions in one place. Thank you to all our artists, craftsmen and designers for making a collection that will stand out in any library!
